So much for us as for them, it is necessary to forget the clashes that have had this season. It is necessary to go to do the best possible party. We play against one of the best teams of our League and want to go on doing history".

"We do not want to go too fast. First it is necessary to win the first. We go with the illusion to win it, but know that it will be complicated. The spine of the Champions will remain yes or yes. Can finish a season with two titles would be a big success. Ojalá Could win all the years all the titles, but can not be. It does not like me go thinking too advance", has reflexionado on the final perspectives of the campaign.

"We want the doublet, but know that it will be complicated, go to try make history in the Glass"

Besides, it has asked that it leave to look to other groups, in concrete by the European victory to which aspires the Real Madrid: "I do not think that a thing remove the another. Each team litigates by the his. We are in the situation that are and already is. What do the others teams... That each one litigate by the his. We have to think in improving our things", has sentenced.

With regard to the fatigue that is mermando to the Barça from does some months, Rakitic has showed ambitious: "it Is what there is. We want to compete in everything and for this it is necessary to be ready. Live the football, have a special passion. Sometimes it is not to be tired, but raise you with win to follow improving. All understand that the years happen and that want the maximum all the years. The illusion has to be stronger that the tiredness. If we can play 60 parties by season, as 60".

After leaving clear that the time separated by the injury has him incomodado, the one of Möhlin has spoken on his past in the Seville, that will not be a distraction: "I Finish to speak with some ex mates of the Seville and do not have to repeat that I seat me sevillista and sevillano. If it did not play this final, would go with them, but already will have time to win another. It is impressive to see how is growing the club. For me the number one is the Barça. This know it they perfectly. They will understand that if I have to break me another hand tomorrow, will break it to me".

"In you win, motivation and illusion does not win us anybody. It is a very important title and no gives it to you anybody. Win it by fourth consecutive year... What want to is that this do not stop never. I understand that for other teams that do not arrive four years followed to the final, is something different. All the world thinks in this party, have hammered me the door thrice to see if I can play tomorrow", has explained on if the Andalusians arrive with more win.

To the question of if this is the best Ivan Rakitic that has seen never, has answered with sincerity: "I Prefer that this say it you or the people of the club.

When you happen some years in any company, go going up stairs, the people knows you better and knows who are and what can give. I identify me 100% with the Barça and want to win it everything.

I repeat me and I say that I will respect to the one hundred by one hundred the decision that take. As big fellow his, will support him. I think that we do not have to speak of this until he communicate us his decision. He is part of the shield of the Barça and it is necessary to respect his decision when it take it".

With regard to the minutes of Jasper Cillessen, also has 'wetted' by the Dutch. "Sure that it would like him be much more, but think that understands that with Marc, at least by what I think, have to the best goalkeeper of the world.

It was very well in semis against Valencia and deserves achieve this title with us. It will be a moment special for him", has aimed.
